we got a dealer price $200 lower than the invoice. invoice (with certain options): $25500 dealer offer: $25300 out-of-door (dealer offer + ttl + tax) : ~ $27300 How is this offer? Is $200 lower than the invoice good enough?

I had a weird experience. I bought a new Forester X Limited from Fitzmall in MD with 9 miles on it. It had been on their website as being "on order" and I put a deposit on the car. I picked it up about a week after it was delivered. Today I registered it in a different state - NJ - and they informed me it was being registered as a used car because the dealer had registered it - either that is their normal policy or it was registered as a demo model. I'm really confused. Is this normal practice if you're purchasing from out of state? Or did the dealership screw me somehow?

Replying to: connieylee (Feb 11, 2009 8:46 am) When I buy a car from Ohio (which is very close), they first title it in my name in Ohio (as a non-resident, so no tax), then take the Ohio title to KY, to title it and pay tax.. But, it is still noted as a new car... NJ may be different... Another possible explanation (but not likely on an '09 Forester), is that a dealer will mark a car as "sold" to collect an expiring incentive from the manufacturer. Probably not the case here, though.. A call to FitzMall would probably answer the question, definitively.. regards, kyfdx

Replying to: ateixeira (Feb 11, 2009 10:18 am) She thinks she knows what she wants possibly a demo 2.5xt limited w/ +/- 3500 miles (non nav) or a base line model. Here is my question how much would the sale price of the demo run and how much off the sticker price be of the base line model. Im not real familar with the invoice pricing on this niche type vehicle. Any help would be greatly apprepricated. BTW we are located in Ocean County NJ Thanks in advance.

OK...just closed the deal. I've got a 2.5X Limited (for the gas mileage) in the spark silver, with the black, er, "dark grey" interior. They're bringing it in from another dealership and waiving the usual $100 fee... MSRP: $26,890 (pzev!) Dealer's Quoted Invoice: $25,261 (base dealer invoice: $24,566 according to cars101.com) Internet price: $24,221 ($1,040 under invoice...previous offer was $300 under invoice...so this would technically be $345 under "base" dealer cost?) Homelink mirror, wheel arch mouldings, rear bumper guard, cargo cover (I didn't want the puddle lights because they could break if I bottom out): $1,058 including labor to install at dealership... Purchase price: $25,279 TTL in Pennsylvania: $1,730 $27,009. Now the next question is financing rates. $500 down, $9,509 when they get the car...financing the other $17,000. Did we get a good deal? We opted to get one from another dealership rather than add the options to the dealer demo with 1300 miles (which they refused to discount)...the car will probably have a few hundred miles on it when it arrives. I have a feeling in the summer, when gas goes back up, it will be really hard to sell these cars...but waiting wasn't in the cards. Let me know if that looks like a good deal!
